From Nottingham Forest to England Footballing Star!

On Wednesday we were privileged to have Jermaine Jenas an Ex- Professional Football player in to speak to approximately 40 students, which included the Boys’ Achievement students and Sports Colours students.

He spoke of his career as a football player and the struggles he faced in becoming a player that reached pivotal heights,

eventually representing his country. He also shared stories from his childhood and how he overcame hard times at school.

The speech was inspiring and motivational to all. Hopefully the students can take the words of encouragement and apply themselves better in lessons.
